It's bullshit. Your own dorm room is not "unheard of" in the US. Depends on the school. Undergrad freshmen almost always have a roommate, and seniors almost never.

My undergrad experience: by policy, freshmen had roommates, sophomores and above lived alone unless they wanted a roommate.

And my experience was that I had a roommate all four years. But that was back in the 80s. Maybe that's one reason student debts have gotten higher.

Yes. It's very important to hear from everyone who had roommates all 4 years of undergrad. No one could have guessed that someone had that experience.
